Hot Power Flow
Power yoga is somewhat similar to Hatha and Vinyasa, but with a higher intensity. The class is considered to be much more intense, strenuous, and dynamic than other forms of yoga and students may be required to move through and hold challenging yoga positions.
Power yoga is incredibly good exercise as it is aerobic and rigorous. Through quick movements and long holds, power yoga can increase your heart rate, strengthen your muscles and build endurance, as well as improve your flexibility and balance.
Therefore, it is important that students have some baseline strength before joining a class. It is also important that students have a basic understanding of the standard yoga poses because the classes move at a faster pace. For these reasons, it’s often not recommended for beginners.
NOTE: This class is not suitable for students who have heart disease, severe hypertension, history or risk of strokes or fits and severe skin problems.
